Good morning to all and to Joy thank you for all the help provided.



I am particularly interested in my gg grandfather known as Thomas CHING born
about 1832 in Amoy China, married (or jumped the broom stick) Mary JUDE
(daughter of a convict) in Mudgee NSW about 1863, their children were

1.Mary Anne CHING (my great grandmother) born about 1864 - No birth
record found, only the reference of previous children on birth Certificate
of William Thomas CHING , Mary Anne died 13th September 1928 Dumbleton Road
Penshurst, Sydney (No 12521)
2.William Thomas CHING born 3 July, 1865 at Low's Creek, Liverpool
Plains 1865 (B346227),
3.Catherine Winforce CHING BORN 29TH December 1867 at Low's Creek,
Liverpool Plains (No 76745)
4.Bridget Victoria CHAIN b1870 Wallabadah NSW, both mother and child
died 1870



Thomas CHING known as CHAIN died 19th September 1888 in Narrabri, age given
56 occupation Carrier informant Catherine W Power daughter, death
certificate states 35 years in NSW.



This is a bit long winded but I wondered if Joy could see if there is any
reference to Thomas CHING/CHAIN in the book that she has access to.



With thanks

Sandra
